About
Photovoltaic systems, from small residential rooftops to large utility-scale systems. Concentrating Solar Power systems for electric power generation, including parabolic trough, power tower, and linear Fresnel. Power purchase agreement (PPA) projects where the system is connected to the grid at an interconnection point, and the project earns revenue through power sales. The project may be owned and operated by a single owner or by a partnership involving a flip or leaseback arrangement. Third-party ownership is where the system is installed on the customer's (host) property and owned by a separate entity (developer), and the host is compensated for power generated by the system through either a PPA or lease agreement.

About
Xendee is a cloud-based energy system design platform that helps engineers, planners, utilities, developers, and project teams rapidly model, simulate, and analyze complex energy infrastructure systems, including microgrids, utility grids, renewable energy portfolios, storage assets, and hybrid power systems, with precision and flexibility. It combines advanced system modeling, optimization algorithms, and scenario analysis to size and compare generation, storage, and load profiles, evaluate economic performance, and forecast operational outcomes under real-world conditions so teams can make data-backed decisions without manual spreadsheets or disparate tools. Xendee supports multi-objective optimization to minimize cost, maximize resilience, or meet sustainability targets with constraints like fuel availability, tariffs, emissions limits, and reliability criteria, while providing detailed outputs such as energy production curves and cash flow projections.
